Dissolve the yeast and tsp of the sugar in the lukewarm milk and leave about 10 minutes, until the mixture foams.
💡If the mixture doesn't foam in that time, the yeast is no longer active, or the water was too hot. Start over with fresh yeast and body-temperature water.

⚙ KneadingBowlStand mixer
💡For yeast dough, use the windowpane test: a small piece stretches into a thin, translucent sheet without tearing, and that's the sign the kneading is done. Add flour only by the tablespoon, and only if the dough is still sticky after a few minutes: too much flour makes a tough dough.
